If you have chosen to relocate to France, you will know that there is an abundance of property for sale in France to choose from. There are chalets near beautiful ski hills, villas on the Mediterranean, and funky townhouses or apartments in cosmopolitan cities. With so much property for sale in France, how do you know where to buy?
 
The answer lies in your lifestyle. Would you be happier in the countryside or in the city? Some people find living in an isolated cottage in the middle of nowhere is the most relaxing thing they could imagine. Others would find it lonely, boring, and inconvenient. To find out where you should be looking for property in France, answer these simple questions:

•    Do you like to see a play, watch a film in the cinema, or go to a nightclub more often than once per week?

•    Do you enjoy eating out often rather than cooking for yourself?

•    Do you love the buzz and excitement of city events, and find yourself easily bored if you cannot go out and attend a festival, concert, or other date?

•     Do you prefer to ride a bike, walk, or take public transit rather than drive?

•    Would you find a property in France with a lot of gardening and upkeep to be a pain more than a pleasure?

•    Do you travel frequently from the nearest airport?

If you answered yes to these questions, you would likely be happier in a city flat. You will have access to all of the culture and social activities of the city, as well as to travel opportunities.

•    Do you find you sleep better at night when it is peaceful and quiet?

•    Do you love the outdoors and find gardening to be enjoyable?

•    Do you spend most of your time hiking, playing sports, skiing, or camping?

•    Would you savour the challenge of renovating an older France property such as a farmhouse, villa, or cottage?

•    Are you not too concerned about having to drive a distance to shop for supplies?
If you answered yes to these questions, you should be looking for a France property in the countryside. You are likely the type of person who would enjoy the laid back, rural lifestyle.
 
Luckily, both lifestyles are fantastic in France. There are many beautiful cities with art, culture, music and lively festivals throughout the year. Also, the French countryside is incredibly picturesque and offers the chance to grow a wide range of delicious produce. Whether you seek the life of the hip, urban city-dweller or the quiet, close-to-the-earth rural homeowner, France is the perfect place to create your lifestyle.
